Load moreHow to choose a lube
The base of a lubricant decides how long it lasts, how easy it is to wash off, and whether it works with your toys and condoms. This collection has water-based, silicone-based and hybrid lubes, plus thicker anal formulas, flavored and warming or cooling lubes.
| Base | Good to know | Condoms & toys |
|---|---|---|
| Water-based | Easy to wash off; can dry out and need reapplying. | Generally safe with latex condoms and compatible with every toy material. |
| Silicone-based | Lasts longer and works in water; takes soap to wash off. | Generally safe with latex condoms. Many silicone-toy brands advise against using it on silicone toys. |
| Hybrid | A blend of water-based and silicone-based ingredients. | Check the brand’s label for condom and toy compatibility. |
| Oil-based | Long-lasting, often used for massage. | Not for use with latex condoms, because oil weakens latex. |
Our lube guide explains each type in more detail and links to its sources.
Specialty lubes
- Anal lubes are usually thicker, such as Wicked Jelle, Pjur Analyse Me! and Doc Johnson A-Play.
- Flavored lubes are made for oral sex; sexual-health educators suggest keeping them to oral and external use. Check the ingredients on the product page.
- Warming, cooling and tingling lubes add a sensation, but the ingredients that create it can irritate sensitive skin. Try a small amount first.
- Fragrance-free and “sensitive” formulas from brands such as Wicked and Pjur leave out added scent.

Questions people ask
Which lube is safe with condoms?
Water-based and silicone-based lubes are generally considered safe with latex condoms; oil-based products are not. Always check the brand’s label.
Can I use silicone lube with a silicone toy?
Many toy brands recommend against it because it can damage the toy’s surface. Use water-based lube unless the toy’s brand says otherwise.
Is flavored lube okay for intercourse?
Follow the label: some flavored lubes are labeled for oral use only, others are multi-use.
